Pretty silly and bland article.

Ofcourse a bitcoin is an awesome buy at 50 bucks. Hell, I'll sell my house and buy 200k euro worth of BTC at $50. Sell them the next day at $100 and buy my house back plus a whole warehouse full of ASICs Smiley

Ugh. The ignorance of these writers ...

Apparently, Bitcoins are sold one at a time.

What should he have said? "Recently, 1.03527 bitcoins fetched 116.726693 on Mt. Gox."

Obviously he's going to go by the per-unit price.

Bove decided to write about bitcoins after a top New York bank regulator issued subpoenas to several major bitcoin companies and issued a memo on virtual currencies.

I hope there will be enough chickens to panic and dump their "becoming illegal" coins for $50 Smiley
Get ready for some cheap coins soon!

Huh "One X is worth $Y" is the standard way of quoting currency/commodity prices, regardless of divisibility or lack thereof.

I love how the $50 comes from nowhere... just like other speculation... so silly.  Bitcoins are a good buy at $100, too... or $150 for that matter... in 5 or 10 years...

Wow nice.  I doubt he will get the option to enter but nice to see some in the industry realizing Bitcoin isn't going away.
